I love how quickly I can go from ”Oh god I said ’no’ to you for no good reason; I’m so selfish! I’m the real abuser.” to ”I want to rip you apart with my bare hands.” Like…. what?
Either nothing at all or all at once huh

My thoughts on The Final Problem (SPOILERS)
I usually don’t do reviews but had to put down my thoughts during a rewatch of The Final Problem, as my emotions were all over the place! Turns out I like it more than I initially thought. But be warned, there will be snark!!
- The plane start is such a cool and creepy callback to SiB and TGG! - Is Mycroft watching some hardboiled detective porn in his private little cinema? 😂 - That Mycroft beginning was all Mark, wasn’t it? So many horror tropes! - That scene with the sword in the umbrella makes me squeal with delight👌🏻. - Yup, Sherlock just destroyed Mycroft’s paintings. This scene feels very Disney Haunted Mansion! - That clown was just fucking mean. I’m not scared of clowns, normally but 😱. - That umbrella is so bloody versatile! I want one. - I ADORE seeing more of Mycroft’s home. - “Would you like  a cup of tea?” - “Thank you.” - “The kettle’s over there”. OH SNAP, Mrs. Hudson 😂 - I love and hate how Mycroft was monitoring Sherlock with trigger words. - “This is a family matter.” - “That’s why he stays.” AMAZING! 🙌 It’s just been revealed that Mycroft has screwed over Sherlock and he has the cheek to ask for John to leave? Blood is not always thicker than water. John is probably more of a family member to Sherlock than Mycroft has ever been. - Getting a bit tired of the ’Sherlock is the stupid sibling’ thing. They all seem pretty equal in this episode. - Love the reveal of Musgrave! - How many people have a fake graveyard with funny headstones?? lol Again, very Haunted Mansion! - Um, the Redbeard thing is very weird when you figure out that he was actually Sherlock’s friend. “Eurus locked him up and wouldn’t tell anyone where.” Um…Wouldn’t that get her in a whole lot of trouble considering A CHILD DISAPPEARED? More on that later. - “She started to call him ‘drowned Redbeard’ so we made our assumptions.” 😳 Again, he’s a HUMAN CHILD. - Or were they about to lock her up for the Redbeard thing BEFORE she burnt down the house? Because that would work. Wouldn’t the police be all over this? - “What is that on top of the drone?” - “A weak-ass grenade that will only slightly re-arrange and singe 221 B”. 😜 - Mrs. Hudson is a BAMF even while hoovering - “Is a phone call possible?” Nah, last phone call movements won’t set the grenade off. Hey Siri…lol -  That explosion 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 - Shout out to JW and SH’s bones for being tough as fuck. Get thrown out of a first floor flat by an explosion? No biggie. Those boys clearly get enough calcium! - So how did they get on the boat? Helicopter despite the weather? - Why is Sherrinford broadcasting its location? - “My name is Sherlock Holmes” - “The detective?” - “The pirate” YASSSSS. Love that entrance! - And that jump! BATLOCK! - Didn’t recognise Mycroft as the fisherman. First class disguise! - Fuck, I also didn’t recognise B in his disguise. Not even the voice! - Wow, how Mycroft just took down the Governor! - May we take a second to appreciate how GLORIOUS Sherlock looks when he gets out of the elevator and enters Eurus’ cell! - I really didn’t see the glass thing coming. Fantastic! - Ew, Eurus’ sex story. “Afterwards you couldn’t really tell.” Sadistic to the core. - John Watson is a lot cleverer than the Holmse boys right now…”Vatican cameos”. - The ‘Eurus is in charge’ twist is BRILLIANT. - OMG WHEN THEIR HANDS TOUCH - “Ok, killing my brother for a bit…stop me in a minute”. Bitch. - I don’t care what everyone says, that Moriarty entrance is EVERYTHING!!! 😍What a LEGEND. - I guess this confirms Moriarty likes boys lol - “The Hungry Donkey” 😂 - Can we just agree that Mycroft is a fucking idiot for using Eurus to do government work. And giving her Christmas presents 🤦‍♀️ - Yup give Eurus access to Twitter. What could go wrong? 🤦‍♀️ - Yup give Eurus access to the Consulting Criminal. What could go wrong? 🤦‍♀️ - So Moriarty knew about Redbeard? Did he use that at all when tormenting Sherlock?? - What else did they talk about? Their kink for torturing Sherlock? - I like the challenge with the Governor and his wife. Very gripping. What would we do? Reveals that Mycroft has a heart and is a bit of a coward. And John is a good, dependable man. - The Moriarty announcements 😂 Psycho theme park walk through attraction. -  Ok, have to be honest. That puzzle with the 3 brothers bored me. I know Eurus wanted to see Sherlock at work but I wanted them to get on with the story. - I really love the John/Sherlock/Mycroft dynamic in this episode. - The Molly challenge is heart wrenching. - I assume she didn’t hear about the explosion and Sherlock missing? Otherwise she’d immediately answer that phone, right? Why does she look so distraught? - It really really pained him to do that to Molly. - How he closes that coffin and then loses it. ACTING. - Choosing between Mycroft and John. Saw that coming a mile off. Same goes for Sherlock’s choice. - Mycroft almost got me there. Excellent acting. He knwos who his brother needs. - “This is where I get off” 😂 - The moment Sherlock realizes how obsessed Eurus is with him. Brilliant! - Totally digging the Redbeard reveal now. Makes sense to cover up a traumatic memory like that. - But here’s my main problem. Your child disappears. He was playing with a friend near their house. Wouldn’t the police be combing the whole property? Maybe even for miles? How far away from the main house could that well have been? And that child would be screaming. For hours. Even if he drowned, you’d drain that well looking for the kid. MASSIVE suspension of disbelief required here. - “I never had a best friend. I had no one. So I killed yours.” Eurus is a monster. This makes the whole resolution very hard to swallow. - The numbers on the headstone work as a cipher for the song. Fine. - That song wasn’t really a solution to Redbeard’s disappearance, was it? It was Eurus telling Sherlock to love her? - She killed your best friend, she made drawings of killing you, she burnt down the family home, she used a master criminal to get you to kill yourself, she put you through hell, she tried to make you kill your brother and is about to drown your best friend. But she’s just a misunderstood genius who needs love. Let’s give her a hug. If it weren’t for John he should have put a bullet in that bitch. - “He’s a good one.” 😭 - Yeah Sherlock, feel bad about not bringing Eurus home. jfc. The man’s a bit of a masochist, isn’t he? - Yaaaay PARENTS - They’re playing violin together. Whatevs. Still think she’s too dangerous. - John and Sherlock putting 221 B together is beautiful. - Mary’s narration at the end is glorious. Almost feels like she’s giving them her blessing. Johnlock or not. - Two men and a baby, solving crimes. This leaves me wanting more!!
